Fast flying lights chasing each other in the sky, looked like fighter jets, but too high flying and too fast

At approximately 11:00pm on Friday, July 7, 2006, I as well as 3 other persons witnessed someting that was definitely not aircraft. At first, it appeared to be fighter jets very high in the sky, but then we realized it couldn't be, they were too high in the sky for one thing, and also were flying at a speed that cannot be achieved by even the most strategic aircraft of them all. It was as if they were playing, flying back in forth in the sky, chasing each other from south to north, and then back north to south, and occasionally an east to west and so forth...this went on for about 20-25 minutes, maybe longer, we were all in such awe of what we were witnessing. Then they just stopped and dissappeared. About 3-5 minutes later there was a very bright bar of lights in the sky to the south and it hovered just above the tree line...this entire property where we were is completely surrounded with trees, but this bar of lights appeared over the tree line and then it was just gone. Just like that, gone! The bar of lights seemed to have like 4-6 lights running from side to side and it was very hard to see any type of structure to it, just the lights. It was strange, and after hearing about the sightings in Texas recently, it made me think of that night, and I started looking and researching to see if anyone else saw what we saw that night, but I have not found anything so far. Just wanted to share our experience.
